Daniel Schweiger Lauds ‘Girl On A Bicycle’ Composer Craig Richey

“Richey’s embodies a bicycle as driven by Venus herself, full of peddling, uptempo rhythm, bell-ringing percussion and effortlessly gliding melody that knows just how to hit its sneaky, jokey bumps in the right fashion, while also playing some hurt hearts.” (Daniel Schweiger, AssignmentX)  Read the full article at AssignmentX.

When a leading music journalist sings a composer’s praises, you pay attention. Described as “sweetly hands-on” by notable Film Music Journalist Daniel Schweiger, Girl On A Bicycle‘s soundtrack composer Craig Richey is someone you could depend on to deliver the aural emotions that could only enhance a film.  Besides GirlLakeshore Records also released these soundtracks composed by Richey: Answers To Nothing, The King of Kong: A Fistful of Quarters and Wonderful World.

Lakeshore Records: Soundtracks By Craig Richey

Craig Richey’s latest soundtrack album, Girl On A Bicycle, is about an Italian tour bus operator, Paolo (played by Vincenzo Amato) who proposes to his true love, Greta (played by Nora Tschirner). Due to a series of unfortunate and comical events, including a guilty conscience, Paolo ends up caring for a French girl, Cécile (played by Louise Monot), with whom he grew an infatuation and subsequently runs into with his tour bus.  The fact that she is a single mother with two children only complicates the matter further.

Editor’s Pick: ‘Draft Day’ Selected By Film Music Magazine

Film music journalist Daniel Schweiger has selected Draft Day (scored by John Debney) as part of his April Soundtrack Picks shortlist at Film Music Magazine.

“But darned if Debney’s propulsive, ever-intensifying score doesn’t make you think that you’re listening to the music for the be-all end-all game, right down to the big pitch, sustained anticipation, and winning play of a soaring orchestra – here passed to the tune of millions of dollars.”  Read the full article at Film Music Magazine.

Lakeshore Records: Draft Day April Soundtrack Pick by Film Music Magazine

Schweiger writes for the On The Score section at Film Music Magazine and has interviewed the top film composers in the business, including Stephen Endelman (Rob The Mob), Clint Mansell (Faster, Smokin’ Aces), Cliff Martinez (Drive), Brian Reitzell (Boss), Brian Tyler (Transformers Prime), and John Debney.
